for Chat eld’s fundraising week.

“I’m actually alumni of Chat eld,” she said. “So that was special that high school was having their tenth (Wish Week) anniversary and also chose my son to be their Make-AWish kid.” e highlight of the week was when the students invited Rocky, the mascot of the Denver Nuggets, to their nal assembly for Logan to meet. e week’s events raised more than $30,000, which is enough to grant the wishes of four Colorado children with critical illnesses, according to the school.

In December, Logan accompanied the Chat eld women’s ag football team to a Denver Broncos game, where he got to meet some players.

During Wish Week, Logan, his family and Hu went to several restaurants for fundraising events.

About thirty students planned the week, said Lyli Alcover-Matsuda, one of the student leaders. During the school days, there was a mu n sale, games and other challenges that students and sta could pay to participate in.

“I just feel like being able to make a di erence in another person’s life, whether you know them or not, is really important, and it’s de nitely what the world needs more of,” Alcover-Matsuda said.

For Perea, the best part of the week was seeing the community come together for Logan and their family.

“It’s really been a journey through his health experience,” she said. “We just kind of learn to appreciate the little things and focus on positives and take everything one day at a time… It’s just been really amazing to see the community come together in support of us and Make-A-Wish and just see that people care.”
